Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Historical Geography of Europe, Vol. 1 of 2 It is now several years since this book was begun. It has been delayed by a crowd of causes, by a temporary loss of strength, by enforced absence from England, by other occupations and interruptions of various kinds. I mention this only because of the effect which I fear it has had on the book itself. It has been impossible to make it, what a book should, if possible, be, the result of one continuous effort. The mere fact that the kindness of the publishers allowed the early part to be printed some years back has, I fear, led to some repetition and even contradiction. A certain change of plan was found unavoidable. It proved impossible to go through the whole volume according to the method of the earlier chapters. Instead of treating Europe as a whole, I found it needful to divide it into several large geographical groups. The result is that each of the later chapters has had to go over again some small amount of ground which had been already gone over in the earlier chapters. In some cases later lights have led to some changes of view or expression. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geography of Europe IN this volume I have sought to present a general geographical sketch of Europe, and of the various States into which it is divided. In the case of each country the physical features are first described; then an attempt is made to mark the stages of its history, so far as they are related to geography. Next I have brought together some of the leading facts relating to government, population and national character, religion and education, and industry and trade. Finally, an account is given of the principal towns, these being generally grouped under the historic divisions to which they respectively belong. For the reason stated in the text, only a short chapter on the British Isles has been written. This may suffice to show how closely Great Britain is associated with the Continent, with which it was at one time connected by land.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Europe For two decades Carpenter's Geographical Readers have held a large place in the teaching of geography. They have supplied the flesh and blood necessary to clothe the dry bones of the geographic textbooks, and have made the countries and peoples living wholes in the minds of the pupils. Written in the form of personally conducted tours over each continent, the children themselves have traveled with the author by land and sea from country to country and from city to city, visiting the peoples on their farms and in their factories to learn how they live and work, and how each is associated with us and the other nations in the industries and trade of the world.

The nations of central Europe, like the savage Teuton chief with whom Julius Caesar treated 2000 years ago, thought their lands too small for people of their importance and dignity, and they set out to conquer the rest of the world. Their ignominious failure has taught the world that the rule of right must be substituted for the rule of might.

Download or read book Europe written by James Franklin Chamberlain and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Europe: A Supplementary Geography The relations between North America and Europe are so numerous and so intimate that the study of Europe should follow that of our home continent. There should be constant comparison as to position, surface, climate, and human conditions. This comparison presents a review and a new view as well. More attention should now be given to connecting cause and consequence, to map study, and to the use of illustrations. It will add interest and profit to the work if pupils are given an opportunity to trace the journeys which relatives or friends may have made in European countries, and to tell something of the geography of the countries and cities visited. We wish to acknowledge our indebtedness to Mr. George Howell and Professor S. Webster French, of Pasadena, and Dr. Walter A. Edwards, of the Los Angeles High School, for the excellent illustrations furnished by them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Topical Outline of the Geography of Europe, Developed According to the Problem Method and Including the Changes Brought About by the War Southern Europe is a rugged broken region presenting a great contrast to the rest of the continent. The higher moun tain slopes possess an arctic climate while some of the more sheltered valleys are almost tropical. Although the region is very mountainous we would be wrong to think of it as being wholly so. Many valleys border the Mediterranean Sea, some of them being of great extent while within the mountains are even larger plains and plateau.

By carefully examining the earth, and by noticing what is going on at the present time, they are able to tell us about many wonderful changes which have taken place, some of which lasted thousands of years.

Download or read book Geography written by Harlan Harland Barrows and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geography: Europe and Asia In dealing with the homeland, United States and Canada presents only those items in the geography of each part of the country which, because of their outstanding importance, should be known by its young citizens everywhere. Accordingly, although unique provision is made for a study of the home locality, wherever it may be, the distinctive field of the state or local geography is not invaded. In the discussion of the West the necessary transition is made from the ideas Of general regions which were developed in Journeys in Distant Lands to those of work regions which underlie the organization of the material on the remainder of the United States. Urban geography receives unprecedented em phasis for an elementary treatment, an emphasis which is in keeping with the importance Of the city in modern American life and with the fact that more than half the people of the country live in urban communities. The cumulative carry over secured through the organization of material by work regions reaches its climax in the discussion of Canada.

Download or read book Carpenter s Geographical Reader written by Frank George Carpenter and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Carpenter's Geographical Reader: Europe This book aims to give the children a plain and simple de scription of the countries of Europe as they are to-day. The method is by taking the little ones on a personally conducted tour over the continent. It is the children themselves who cross the Atlantic Ocean, steam over the Baltic and the Mediterranean seas and down the historic Rhine and the Danube. It is they who Climb the Alps and stand on the North Cape watching the sun shine at midnight. It is they who go from city to city, from farm to farm, and factory to factory, seeing how the various peoples live and what they are doing in the work Of the world. It is they who are admitted to the palaces, parliaments, and public offices where they learn how each nation is governed and something as to its civilization, commerce, and trade. It is not intended that these travels should take the place of the school geographies, but that they should be used with such books as supplementary reading. As in the volumes describing similar tours in North America, South America, and Asia, the text-books on geography may be regarded as the skeleton and this reader as the flesh and blood which will clothe the dry bones and make the countries a living whole in the minds of the pupils. A glance at the table of contents will give some idea of the scope and character of the work. The children, having crossed the Atlantic on one of the big ocean greyhounds, begin their tour in the United Kingdom. Landing at Queenstown, they explore Ireland, visiting Cork, Killarney, Limerick, and Galway. They cross the bog lands and plains to Dublin, and thence go to the Giant's Causeway and Belfast, where they learn how linen is made. From Belfast, they sail to Glasgow, and after spending a while in the Lowlands or Industrial Scotland go to Edinburgh by the Trossachs. They make a hunting trip to the Highlands, and visit the homes of Robert Burns and Walter Scott before crossing the border to England.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Human Geography in Western Europe: A Study in Appreciation This book contains a selection of the con tents of lectures and discussions in a class in Human Geography at Aberystwyth during the last ten years. In such Work as this every limitation of the Writer inevitably makes itself felt, and yet, as it is of the nature of an appreciation rather than of a professedly complete study, the personal note is a necessity. It may be said to be an early draft of an attempt to appreciate the genius loci of some of the human groups Which have become accustomed to live and act as such in Western Europe. It tries to visualise those groups with their varied racial elements making their several contributions Within each, While the group as a Whole in turn makes its cumulative contribution to What may become a community of civilisation. The effort is therefore made to study human experience in each region in concrete fashion, With attention directed continuously both to man and to his environment, and this, it is urged, is an essential task of the geographer.
